History: The Maltipoo is a popular designer dog breed that is a cross between the Maltese and the Poodle. Maltipoos were likely developed in an attempt to combine the temperament of the Maltese with the non-shedding coat of the Poodle. Like most designer dogs, not much is known about the Maltipoo's history and origins. No one person can be credited with being the first to breed a Maltipoo, but it is believed that the breed originated in the United States sometime during the 1980s or 90s. Despite having two purebred parents, the Maltipoo itself is not a purebred dog, which makes it ineligible for American Kennel Club (AKC) registration. The Maltipoo is still recognized by several smaller dog clubs, like the American Canine Hybrid Club (ACHC).

Temperament: Maltipoos are active, friendly, and loving. They are the ideal companion for anyone who's looking for a loyal dog that forms strong human bonds. It's important to note that, since they are so devoted to their family, Maltipoos can develop separation anxiety if they are left by themselves too often or for too long. However, if you are able to give a Maltipoo the attention and affection it needs, the breed is generally calm and even-tempered. While not overly energetic, Maltipoos still enjoy a moderate amount of exercise daily. These dogs also make good playmates for well-behaved children, so they're wonderful family dogs.
